Wood Gathering is a research technology in the Economy tree of the Research Center in Whiteout Survival.

Overview

Wood Gathering increases Wood Gathering Speed. It is available in 6 tiers (Wood Gathering I, Wood Gathering II, Wood Gathering III, Wood Gathering IV, Wood Gathering V, Wood Gathering VI), each with multiple upgrade levels.

Research costs include 5 resources: Resource, Meat, Wood, Coal, and Iron. Prerequisites require a specific Research Center level and, for higher tiers, completion of previous tiers. Construction times are base times and do not account for Research Speed bonuses.

-=== Chief Gear ===
+== See Also ==
-Equipping [[Chief Gears|Gathering Chief Gear]] is one of the best ways to maximize Wood gathering efficiency. The Gathering gear set provides significant bonuses to gathering speed and march capacity.

+* [[Research_Center|Research Center]]
+* [[Buildings]]
-=== Alliance Territory ===
+[[Category:Research]][[Category:Economy_Research|Economy Research]]
-Alliances that control territory gain access to resource tiles within that territory. High-level Wood tiles in alliance-controlled zones are often reserved for members.
-== Multiple Gathering Marches ==
-Unlocking additional march slots through the [[Command Center]] and research allows you to run multiple gathering marches simultaneously. Maximizing simultaneous marches is the most impactful way to increase Wood income.
-== Wood Usage ==
-Wood is consumed heavily by:
-* Building construction and upgrades
-* Some research technologies
-* Certain gear crafting recipes
-Because Wood is needed for nearly all construction, maintaining a large stockpile is important for rapid city development.
-== Tips ==
-* '''Gather constantly:''' Wood is always needed — never leave marches idle if Wood tiles are available.
-* '''Upgrade Command Center:''' More march slots means more simultaneous gathering — always a good investment.
-* '''Balance with other resources:''' If your Coal or Meat is lower, redirect some marches to those resources instead.
-* '''Gather gear pays off quickly:''' Even a partial Gathering gear set dramatically increases returns per trip.
-* '''Alliance coordination:''' Ask your alliance to mark or call tiles to avoid competition with teammates.
